JANE H BOX
October 20, 1921 - February 15, 2018
Jane passed peacefully February 15, 2018 into the Presence of her
Lord eagerly anticipating leaving the cares of this life to be received
by Him. Jane was born on October 20, 1921, to Effie Mae and Harry Bruce
Hixon in El Paso, but the family soon moved back to Dallas where Jane
grew up, attended school, married, and raised her own family. Jane met
David E. Box, Jr. at Highland Baptist Church where they married during
WWII and were together until his death in 2009. Their lives were
centered in Dallas through residence, church, employment, and various
organizations through the years. Jane and David were faithful members of
Park Cities Baptist Church for many years. Jane was gifted with a
beautiful singing voice, the love of flower arranging and gardening, and
she was also an accomplished painter in both oils and watercolors. Jane
was predeceased by her parents, her husband David, and her granddaughter
Kristin Day. She is survived by her daughters Nancy Day and Peggy Box,
son-in-law Richard Day and grandson Travis Day and wife Veronica. Jane
is also survived by her sister Betty Pogue, sister-in-law Alma Box and
several nieces and nephews. The family wishes to offer appreciation and
love to all those at Hillwood who provided skilled and gentle care and
to those with Compass Hospice who multiplied that love and care during
her final weeks. Visitation will be Sunday, February 18, 2018 at
Sparkman Hillcrest, 7405 W. Northwest Hwy, from 2 pm to 4 pm. A
graveside service will be Monday, February 19 at 1 pm at Hillcrest
Memorial Park with Dr. Rev. Jack Martin officiating. |
